Every cough medicine I’ve tried has failed. Even the Rx stuff. 🙄

Cough medicine is a shitcoin.

thyme extract, have you tried? Thyme is very good for cough.

How do you use it?

Not only you can make tea of fresh thyme, but also you can buy natural thyme extract and follow instructions.

If you know someone that works with herbs and produces natural extracts, even better.

hmmmm I do know a gal...

*so agrees about thyme*

imo herbal steams (especially before lying down) are excellent too.

(diy extracts/tinctures are also super easy)

Coughing is caused by mucas running down from your nose. So if you stand on your head, you won't cough 😉

This is timely advice - been sick for 2 weeks after vacation and almost at the finish line 🏁

I am close to 2 weeks 😳

I'm gonna hand upside down like a bat 🦇

If that isn't practical, I'd recommend keeping warm and maybe taking some contestants (cold/flu meds) to stop your nose running

My nose isn’t running though. It’s 💯 chest congestion and coughing 😔 endless….

Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide.

That's the medicinal ingredient that works. In small amounts it helps suppress coughs. In larger doses it induces hallucinations, so look out. Or go for it, you sure won't care about coughing 😂

Chef Walter White checking in... lol

Hahahahaha

Chocolate and tea work as cough suppressants because they contain theobromine.

Cough medicine is another pharma scam.

It's a shitcoin!

Chocolate and tea don't really help. I caught the robo-cough.

Even tried Tessalon pearls, which always work. Even when I had covid. They aren't working this time...

Honey can take the edge off.

It does help. I am guzzling hot tea with honey.

When you got mucus going on, any wee bit of stomach acid will trigger you, even wen you don't feel the acid.

Get papaya enzymes. They're chewables from Amazon. Like 4 bucks a container. They're life changing.

If it's chronic, rx tessalon pearls are life savers!!!

They are tiny gelcaps. I try to steer away from any rx, but those are super helpful and you end up using them less and less.

This is the one time Tessalon pearls haven’t worked 😭
